Cattelan : Biography and Top Design

The path of
Cattelan
Italy would probably never have begun without that family tradition that, since the 1950s, has seen the father committed to passing on to his children all the passion cultivated inside his workshop, where the scent of wood was the master.

When, in 1979, siblings Giorgio and Silvia Cattelan decided to unite entrepreneurial spirit and an out-of-the-ordinary vision to land in the world of design, the inspiration to follow was given not only by the boundless passion for this field, but precisely by the desire to recreate an elegant and welcoming domestic environment, made of objects capable of excitement without neglecting their functionality.

Cattelan Italia took its first steps by offering small furniture complements in marble, an offering that was expanded over the years, however, as the company experienced a period of international expansion, finding its place in prestigious showrooms and trade fairs globally.

As the new generation joins the company, the journey continues and is enriched with important new features, such as the opening of the Carré showroom, spread over 2,000 square meters. Today Cattelan Italia’s offerings surprise with variety and quality, including tables, chairs, mirrors, sideboards, consoles, bookcases and more, as well as materials such as wood, ceramics, crystal and leather.

 

BIOGRAPHY OF DESIGNER GIORGIO CATTELAN

Giorgio Cattelan was born in Thiene, in the province of Vicenza, as the last of seven siblings. His father, a renowned carpenter in that small town in the Veneto region, had the merit of instilling in him, and his sister Silvia, a passion toward making and working with furniture that was shaped in the family workshop.

His sons Lorenzo and Paolo also joined the company in 1995: the latter will occupy increasingly prominent positions, taking the helm of Cattelan Italia starting in 2014 and making a key contribution to the design study of new products and their launch on the market.

 

CATTELAN TABLES AND CONSOLES

The tables are now undoubtedly among Cattelan Italia’s flagship products, reflecting the company’s philosophy that the home is “a world where everyone surrounds themselves with elements that are welcoming in form and substance,” as explained by Giorgio Cattelan himself.

The concepts of form and substance are thus translated into design and functionality, perfectly fused together in Cattelan Italia’s tables, which not only become true symbols of modern furniture, thanks to refined aesthetics and materials of absolute quality, but also meet the needs of the public, as demonstrated by a wide range of extendable tables equipped with an opening system designed to wisely manage space.

Among the most iconic models is Skorpio, a table with a painted steel base and a top that, depending on the version, is available in ceramic, crystal, or wood. Its essential and elegant geometries are perfect for adding character and originality to a modern living room.

But functionality, a choice of quality materials and designs that are never discounted are also the hallmarks of Cattelan Italia’s console tables, with so many different options that can help furnish entryways, hallways or other rooms in the home.

The Rapa Nui wooden console table, with painted concrete legs reminiscent of the striking statues of Easter Island, is the perfect symbol of how stylistic excellence, state-of-the-art production techniques and fine materials are among the main cornerstones of every Cattelan Italia model.

 

SIDEBOARD AND MIRROR SIGNED CATTELAN HOW TO CHOOSE

Cattelan Italia is aware of how important it is to choose the right mirror for the home environment you want to enhance: that’s why the company’s catalog includes mirrors of all types, whether floor, wall, shaped or smoked.

Among all these options, it will not be difficult to find the ideal mirror for the room to be furnished, taking into account the space available, the style of the furniture already present and the dominant shades of color: the wide variety of finishes in Cattelan Italia’s catalog will allow you to find the right matches for every scenario.

In many cases, moreover, the mirror is the perfect complement to a sideboard. All sideboards from Cattelan Italia boast an extremely recognizable design that adds a touch of modernity to the living room, and in addition to offering a very high level of customization, including colors, materials and finishes, they are designed to best fit the space available, with opening mechanisms ranging from sliding doors to hinged doors, to sideboards with display cases that allow you to observe the contents inside.
